Is zipping through the skies with nothing holding you up your dream or your nightmare? Depending on your viewpoint, this news is either the best development since sliced white, or the stuff that nightmares are made of.
A Brit company, http://www.uk-cpi.com/windowless-fuselage/#.VE7k-hbVeet is working on a 'windowless' plane. It's not really, of course. They are just planning to line the sides of the cabin, and the backs of seats, with high definition screens showing the view outside. But as far as passengers are concerned, they'll feel like they are traveling on an open platform through the clouds.
I quick poll in my household had some really excited, and others running screaming in horror, at just the thought.
